Name and pictogram

The station's pictogram depicts King Tezozómoc, who ruled the Azcapotzalco altepetl for 80 years and it is also named in his honor.[3]

General information

The station can be accessed through Ahuehuetes and Avenida Sauces Colonia Pasteros, in the Azcapotzalco borough. It has no underground direct connections, which means that, in order to exchange platforms, one has to exit the station and cross the street, thus making it necessary to pay the fare again, or reach one of the two neighboring stations and change platforms there (without paying extra), a feature only shared with Metro Allende in Line 2.[4]

From 23 April to 16 June 2020, the station was temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico.[5][6]
